Since 1970, more than 15,000 published studies have proved exercise is medicine in cancer. Of the more than 18 million individuals who have cancer worldwide, only 20% are told that exercise can aid recovery and prevent cancer’s reoccurrence. But there is significant momentum for change.
The film details the tremendous progress that has been made in stellar cancer exercise programs ranging from community groups to the best oncology centers in the world. Produced in association with the American College of Sports Medicine, the film is available worldwide at no cost.
The book, Moving Through Cancer by Kathryn Schmitz, is available on Amazon.
